Publisher Description

Close your eyes, Ela of Parne. Close your eyes and you will see. Ela Roeh of Parne doesn't understand why her beloved Creator, the Infinite, wants her to become His prophet. She's undignified, bad tempered, and only 17 - not to mention that no prophet of Parne has ever been a girl. Worst of all, as the elders often warn, if she agrees to become the Infinite's prophet, Ela knows she will die young. Istgard has turned their back on Me. See the evil they do. Yet after experiencing His presence, she can't imagine living without Him. Determined to follow the Infinite's voice, Ela accepts the sacred vinewood branch and is sent to bring the Infinite's word to a nation torn apart by war. Here she meets Kien, a young Traceland ambassador determined to bring his own justice for his oppressed people. As they form an unlikely partnership, Ela must surrender to her destiny... and determine how to balance the leading of her heart with the leading of the Infinite. Will you accept the branch and speak My will? Will you be My prophet?

"Upon receiving this book I was a little skeptical as I am not a fan of Christian Fantasy. However, by the end of the first chapter I was hooked. The book refers to the "Infinite" as the almighty creator, because of this I did not feel as though I needed any background in Christian religion to understand the plot. I also loved the way the characters were flawed, so often lead characters seem too perfect to be believable. Ela however, complained and whined, just as any eighteen year-old girl would in Ela's situation. Even though Ela's world and religion were completely foreign to me I found her relatable because of her flaws. I also loved the character of Kien, his sarcasm was refreshing in some of the book's more serious situations. My only complaint is that the end of the book felt rushed. Ela's second journey easily could have been expanded, possibly as the introduction to the second book."

    " I had no idea the author was a Christian until my reading of the Authors notes confirmed it. I thought it was going to be another interesting SCI FY book, was I happily surprised. But as soon as I got a few pages into it, I was already seeing the coalition btwn God & the Infinite. I loved it!! It combined my favorite things, my faith, adventure, fairy tale, sci fy, love, adversity all wrapped into one. I cant wait for the next book to come out. I cant recommend this book or Author enough. Great to the last page! "

    " Loved Loved Loved this book - my favorite read so far this year. An allegory of Elijah's story in the Bible, this book literally gave me shivers and made me cry at least 4 times, but also made me laugh out loud nearly as much. This is a world I will be visiting again. "

    " This is a well crafted book, highlighting the lead character as a person of faith. It has a strong Christian feel, without the dogma. It helped me understand better those people who have a strong inner faith. It didn't feel in any way preachy to me, and I look forward to the next in the series. "

    " I LOVED this book! It's a fantasy novel in a Biblical Old Testament setting. I love fantasy and I've always been a fan of the Old Testament, so this was pretty much a guaranteed winner with me! "

    " I am completely in love with this book! It was Christian without being preachy, yet engaging throughout. I really felt for Ela as she questioned her worthiness to be called as a Prophet and struggled to know her own heart. I can't wait for the sequel! "

    " I loved this book. It's amazing what God can accomplish when a body is willing. Reminded me to be more open to the Lord's promptings. This is the first of three. Just finished Judge, and it was as good if not even better. LOVE LOVE LOVE this Arthur. "
